This article really resonates with me. I've argued that true conservatism is just a memory, just as classical liberalism is. We endlessly hear the prattle of right- and left-wing extremists who seem to unthinkingly adopt a platform that's spoonfed to them.

As I've watched science crumble, "museums" and "think tanks" that are anything but come into being and even guide public policy, in some cases, while the economy comes smashing down, I've become more concerned about the future of the Western world.

RFE, I believe that YOU won't get fooled again. I wonder about some others, though!

  memestryker,
  There are those who are simply professional fools, and they are numerous enough, yet I have faith in the human race overall to override them. The observable failure and decline of America, and what is great about it, over the last 8 years has certainly made moderates take a hard look at the pseudo-cons. I can't see anyone with a working bit of gray matter saying "yup deese boys did a heII of a job Brownie, I want more of the same". We are better than this.

    I thought that in 2004. We weren't then, & my instincts tell me we aren't now. And I hope RFE, that I'm wrong.
